How to integrate LiteSpeed into Joomla

Today, we are going to take a look at how to integrate LiteSpeed with Joomla.

1. First, we have to log in to our cPanel and head to LiteSpeed Cache under Software.
2. Then, click Enable LiteSpeed Cache.
3. Next, we must deactivate any other full-page cache modules we may be using like System – Page Cache, JotCache, and so on.
4. Now, we have to edit the .htaccess file in the Joomla site directory to add the following directives:

   <IfModule LiteSpeed>
CacheLookup on
</IfModule>
5. At this point, we have to download the LiteSpeed plugin for Joomla from this link.
6. After that, head to Install under Manage in the Extensions section and upload the plugin zip file.
7. Next, navigate to Plugins under Extensions and search for LiteSpeed in the Search Box.
8. Then click the checkbox next to LiteSpeedCache Plugin and click the Enable button at the top.

   Our experts would like to point out that we modify the LiteSpeed Cache configuration for Joomla by heading to LiteSpeed Cache under Components.

After the above steps, we can verify that the LiteSpeed cache has been enabled for our Joomla site. This is done by opening developer tools under the Network tab in Chrome and verifying the response header. If we see, “X-litespeed-Cache-cache: hit”, LiteSpeed Cache has been successfully integrated into our Joomla site.
